Sibu By-Election

At one stage last night, I started to suspect that BN is playing it dirty again after initial count showed DAP has won the by-election by a 2,651 majority. They didn't release the official result in the dispute that postal votes count do not telly, hence was recounting it.

There were total of 2,500 plus postal votes, and if let say all of them voted for BN, the majority would then be down to about 100 votes, which is by far less than the 1% required for a recount. Then my worry started that during the recount, some phentom votes would then be mixed into the original pool of votes. This will then make BN the winner.

Fortunately, at the last count, and official result released, it was shown that DAP has won with a majority of 398 votes. So this result has also shown that Sibu voters are more rational, and sensible. They do not bound to the sweets and cheques promised and/or distributed by BN. They voted based on their wish, and who they seems more capable of helping them in the area. In the end the by-election shows BN and PR are 50-50 in the area, and there are more works to be done in order to totally wins the area from all voters.

When Hulu Selangor by-election was won by BN, all these BABIs started to shout that people have dumped PR and their votes swinging back to BN now. Moreover Sibu is a stronghold of BN, and now they lost one of their stronghold, I just want to see what can they say now. One thing for sure is that Perkasa will have something to say!
